The Ouachita Telegraph, in the
following, expresses the universal
sentiment Of the people of Louisiana:
Governor Nichols, by his dignified
and courteous bearing, manners and
language, impressed and convinced
every one who had the pleasure to
see and hear him, that he is a gen.
tleman Of a much higher type than
your ordinary politician. A man OF
honor and principle, you felt in his
presence that honesty and patriotism
are not yet dead in practical poll
tics" With his ability as a states
man what more could be asked for
our chief executive.

Very little interest it seems was
taken in the election held the other
day in Acadia parish to determine
whether the school lands should be
sold. In one township twelve votes
were cast, all in favor of selling.
The other township went thirty,seven
solid against sale. Bro. Duson claims
it was the stockmen who beat the
sale, and declares the land shall
bring some revenue. If no nj else
wants it, like the public spirited man
he is, he will rent it himself.

STROMBERG SQUEALS.
He Writes Spirited Letter to the President
Of the League About His Intentions.


President Stromberg, of the st. Louis Ma
rooms, has at last been heard from in tones
mighty and deep, tones that indicate that the
efforts of the National League to smooth things
for him have only rubbed the fur the wrong way
and created a chasm between the League and
him, which. it is to be hoped by Indianapolitans,
will widen. Mr.. Stromberg has written letter
to N. E. Young, president Of the League, which
exhibits his spinal column at truly frightful
elevation. Mr.. Strombergs burst of epstolatory
dignity is as follows
ST. LOUIS. Jan. 81. 1887.
N E. Young ESQ.,: Dear Strive understand that
certain ''dsinterested friends" are endeavoring to
make it appear that the Maroons about to leave
the League and for that they propose TO pre-
vent the company from selling the release OF certain
players We write you to say that the company pro-
poses to play the Maroons this in the League,
and to play their clubs with a nine of their own
selection. and that it will brook no interferences
the part of the committee set of men, that will
sell the release of any wish to sell, and if any
person or persons prevent try to interfere with
such sale they do so at their peril These
friends must understand that we propose to
shall make the law, both civil and criminal, to
protect ourselves in this right. We have far held
speak, and we propose now to do it in terms that
cannot be misunderstood. We trust that you will
inform any inquirng friends of determination in
WILLIAM STRoMBERG
President St. Louis League Club.
"That settles it," said Mr.. George W. Burn
ham to Journal reporter yesterday y.This
letter shows that Mr.. Strombere and his direct
ors are on the ragged edge WHY, at arecent
meeting of the directors of the Maroons there
was but one dissenting voice when it was pro-
posed to go out OF the League and that voice
was Strombere's. Yet he says we all through
his letter. He can't get sassy at the League,
because they will summarly dispose of the
Maroons if he does. Besides. it is in
| violation of the rules of thu League
| for a club to dispose of any OF its
| players from point of speculation. In about
ten days the League will hold special meeting.
| and two three delegates from Indianapolis
| will be present and represent the interested per-
sons here, and an effort will be made, should the
| ST. Louis Club be displaced, to have the fran
! chise transferred to this city. Several members
| of the League have expressed preference for
the Indianapolis club, and its admission is al
| most assured"

A Telegraph Company's Mistake.

In last September Albertus Swain sent tele-
gram over the Western Union wires to Neosha,
No., from Richmond, to W. A. Hallet. When
the telegram reached Neosha its address read
NV. A. Ssmett," and no such person was
there it could not be delivered. Mr. Swain
brough. suit against the company, and they
were fined the penalty of 800, the amount set
by statute for non-delivery. They appealed to
ahe Supreme Court, and the decision was re-
versed on the ground that the message was an
unrepeated one, and that the company could not
guard against the effect Of the weather upon its
wires which was the alleged GAUGE of the error.

A Trade the Court Didn't Approve

Joseph Smith and Charles Patterson were be-
fore the Mayor yesterday morning for trading
an old horse for James Brooks's cow. The evil
dence showed that Smith had purchased the
horse of Paterson for the sum of So so. and sub.
stituted it for the COW. The Mayor released
Patterson, after lecturing him at length for his
action in attempting to cheat an old colored man
out of his only COW. Smiths case was taken
under consideration, but he will probably be re-
leased, too. As soon as Patterson was given his
freedom he went straightway and returned the
cow to Brooks. and led home his two-and- a. half
dollar horse
